Szilvia VERECZKEY

1955, Budapest

textile artist

She graduated from the Hungarian Academy of Applied Arts in 1983. Until the regime change in 1990 she worked in the design and implementation of printed textile collections, then she turned to the design and implementation of autonomous works. She also designs unique clothing accessories, stoles, scarves and jewellery. For the last two years, she has been using metal raster surfaces, metal fabrics, wires, and dipped paper of her own making as ground materials for her autonomous works. In addition to her artistic activities, she has been teaching for 20 years, and since 2020 she has been an art teacher at the Gyík Workshop. Among her many awards, the most important ones are the Industrial Design Award of Excellence (1998), the HUNGART scholarship (2000), the Noémi Ferenczy Award (2006), and the Anna Rózsa Award (2006).
